    Stranger will suck you in, much like his bounty collection device, from the opening tutorial and you won't be able to put it down until the final boss fight and surprise ending.

    An HD update that does justice to the less-known chapter in the Oddworld series. Those who missed the original for whatever reasons shouldn't let escape this update that enhances graphics and tells the story of a charming character.

    Despite showing its age, Stranger's Wrath HD is still a wholly original, refreshing title when compared to many modern offerings.

    Excellent game back in the day and with a cheap price and shiny new graphics now is the time to play your new favorite game. I'm loving it all over again, after so long I'd forgotten just how cool the switch from third person action to FPS is. Its about time we had more games from oddworld!… Expand

    I have just recieved the platinum trophy for the game, and i can say that at no point did it feel like a chore to have to play through it twice. I felt like there could have been more pre-rendered cutscenes as these have always been a highlight of the Oddworld series. Also if you have played older Oddworld games you should receive a few nostalgic hits here and there. I did have a problem with the sound though, it felt like some of the voices were being cut off too early and a lack of sound effects in a few areas, but as i got into the game these moments slipped passed me as i was engaged in the experience. The change in gameplay and story near the end was the cherry on the cake for me, along with listening to what the Clakkerz had to say and the funny dialogue from the Grubbs. Even though it did not have that gloomy feel of the first two oddworld games, it was something different and revealed a new part of Oddworld that will always have a place in my heart, and a place on my list of gaming greats.… Expand
